Abstract

Mangifera casturi Kosterm., a mango plant from Kalimantan Selatan, Indonesia, has limited genetic information, severely limiting the research on its genetic variation and phylogeny. We collected M. casturi’s genomic information using next-generation sequencing, developed microsatellite markers and performed Sanger sequencing for DNA barcoding analysis. These markers were used to confirm parental origin and genetic diversity of M. casturi hybrids. The clean reads of the Kasturi accession were assembled de novo, producing 259 872 scaffolds (N50 = 1 445 bp). Fourteen polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed from 11 040 microsatellite motif-containing sequences. In total, 58 alleles were produced with a mean of 4.14 alleles per locus. Microsatellite marker analysis revealed broad genetic variation in M. casturi. Phylogenetic analysis was performed using internal transcribed spacers (ITS), matK, rbcL, and trnH-psbA. The phylogenetic tree of chloroplast markers placed Kasturi, Cuban, Pelipisan, Pinari, and Hambawang in one group, with M. indica as the female ancestor. Meanwhile, the phylogenetic tree of ITS markers indicated several Mangifera species as ancestors of M. casturi. Thus, M. casturi very likely originated from the cross-hybridization of multiple ancestors. Furthermore, crossing the F1 hybrids of M. indica and M. quadrifida with other Mangifera spp. may have generated much genetic variation. The genetic information for M. casturi will be a resource for breeding improvement, and conservation studies.

Highlights

  • Mangifera casturi Kosterm., a mango plant from Kalimantan Selatan, Indonesia, has limited genetic information, severely limiting the research on its genetic variation and phylogeny

  • M. casturi is proposed to be the natural hybrid of M. indica and M. quadrifida according to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) ­analysis[4]

  • Self-incompatibility in the Mangifera genus has been reported in several types of ­mangos[33], suggesting that various Mangifera species can cross-hybridize[2,34]

Summary

Introduction

Mangifera casturi Kosterm., a mango plant from Kalimantan Selatan, Indonesia, has limited genetic information, severely limiting the research on its genetic variation and phylogeny. We collected M. casturi’s genomic information using next-generation sequencing, developed microsatellite markers and performed Sanger sequencing for DNA barcoding analysis. These markers were used to confirm parental origin and genetic diversity of M. casturi hybrids. DNA barcoding methods based on chloroplast regions, such as rbcL, matK12, and trnH-psbA13, internal transcribed spacers (ITS), and second internal transcribed spacers (ITS2) from nuclear ribosomal D­ NA14, have been widely used for phylogenetic analysis at various taxonomic levels These DNA barcoding markers from chloroplast regions can be determined at the genus or family level because of their inheritance from a maternal ancestor. There have been no phylogenetic studies of M. casturi using DNA barcoding to achieve accurate identification at the taxonomy level
